1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I was pretty bitter when I left my last job at an office of 20 people. Someone left the week before me and got a going away card and a happy hour party.

I didn't even get a good bye. Instead a product manager asked me on my last full day if I could do a project which entailed months worth of work before I left. I looked at it and told him no, no I could not.

 

Meanwhile, I made an appointment with my paint and body guy to get the lower trim area painted to be LC light bronze. Getting the rear tailgate painted too.

Similar to this pic.

I have a set of black mirrors from a black part out that I will install after they are painted a satin black. I would rather have black mirrors that match the rest of the trim. I'm heading for this look with a larger front bumper.

 

I can forgive them.. they probably have legit business things they're talking about that I shouldn't be privy to. We've had our hours cut with this covid stuff happening and I'm fairly certain they're going to cut our hours even further


Thankful to still have a job at least

 

are you any good at making margs and giving blowies? job security could be on lock

 

definitely a tough situation, especially at a smaller company. How have you done with cut hours?

 

Ow fuck.. major "Oof" status there

I think it was you that said a week ago that people dont quit jobs, they quit managers. Hopefully it's worked out for you in the end

 

Is it still considered a blowie if you boss is female? I'll take one for the team but before you guys get all excited she's like 6ft tall and 300+ lbs

 

I did say that. And I had approached my manager with several concerns that he dismissed entirely.


New situation is much, much better. Good that I was not unhappy commuting 1hr15 + each way before covid for the management, team, and environment

 

Back from my trip, truck is tired, I am too.

 

Okay I guess. Thankfully WA has a "work share" program that is like unemployment... so long as you work 20hrs a week the state will pay you 60% of your wages for the remaining 20. And also thankful that I've matured enough in my old age to no longer waste all my money on BS


Having a monthly budget is boring but safe

 

Had to grab this during lunch after my coffee. I feel it mr krabs

 

That crowd looks so confused and not at all comfortable with clapping for that woman

 

that'll cure your misfire

 

Wow you must be happy if you're willing to make that kinda daily commute... is that 1.25hrs each way?

 

You just took a vacation! You're not allowed to be tired after a vacation

 

it was, yea


I haven't had to go to the office since march. Despite that I've still driven about 20k miles since Oct lmao

 

Bunch a miles to secretly visit axle roommate at his new pad?

 

115 daily commute miles, couple moab trips, some other wheeling trips, shuffling trailers for the X

 

X trailer shuffling.. how many does she have?!

Wow a couple moab trips? Isn't that like 1000miles one way for you?





I don't actually know I've never been there... got family in CO though
